“…More commonly, follow-up imaging is performed with radiography or CT scanning, which are far less sensitive to soft-tissue visualization. 3,6,8,17,18 Also, in the absence of other reported cases, this phenomenon may be easily misinterpreted as general disease progression.…”

“…8 Since then, other nonrandomized series have replicated their reported rates of efficacy with similar low rates of serious complications. 6,17,18 Most recently, a randomized controlled trial confirmed both the efficacy and safety of BKP in the management of painful VCFs in cancer patients when compared with nonoperative therapies. 3 The BKP group had superior functional outcomes at 1 month, reductions in back pain, improvements in quality of life, and lower requirements of pain medications compared with the nonsurgical management group.…”

“…Injection of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) into the sacrum increases osteoporotic bony resistance and also relieves pain through thermal and chemical factors (1,22,8). Sacroplasty was first reported in sacral metastatic lesions in 2001 (13).…”

“…Although radiotherapy is frequently used, pain relief may take weeks and restabilization months, if it occurs at all. In these patients less invasive techniques such as kyphoor vertebroplasty with immediate stabilization and faster pain relief, combined with short surgical times and low morbidity, have shown their effectiveness for stabilization, prevention of further deformity and pain reduction in several studies [9][10][11][12][13]. Furthermore, not only have surgical improvements occurred but there have also been improvements in radiotherapy.…”
